This is a sensational bespoke 1930’s evening gown. Silver and slinky, this dress turns heads, especially when seen from the back. The front of the dress has a very high neckline that crosses the fabric over and under (tying half a knot), then drapes across each shoulder and runs each piece straight down the back like two straps that end at the waistline. The dress is sleeveless and backless. There is an ornate beaded sash made with larger gold and smaller silver beads which, run along the front in a diamond shape and then slim out on the sides. Two long undecorated pieces of fabric trail off from the sash to be tied in a bow. The dress does up on the left side with snaps. The sash also has hidden snaps on the left side. The dress is cut on the bias flattering anyone who wears it and has a slightly diagonal hemline.
Label: None
Fabric: Silver Satin Rayon Weave
Condition: Pre-loved. The integrity of the dress is still perfect. All the wear and tear is at seams that can be easily reinforced. The beading on the sash is almost completely intact. There are some areas that need some reinforcement and some of the glass beads that were painted gold have worn off to clear. The hemline is a bit dirty.
Measurements: Bust can stretch to 36", 24" waist, 42" from waist to bottom of hem.
